Weekly Photo Challenge: Broken and beautiful

For the next several weeks, my internet access will be very limited, so I thank in advance all of you who visit and comment, knowing I may not be able to reciprocate. I appreciate you as much as I appreciated the woman in front of me at Aldi today, who had a full grocery cart and let me, with my five items, go ahead of her. Believe me, that’s a lot!

The theme for this week’s challenge is “Broken.” We tend to think of broken as bad, but often something or someone must be broken, at least in some sense, for new life or new growth to occur. The Sesame Street line, “Broken and beautiful” can truly be applicable, so watch for those moments.

Thank you! Things have been hectic – it’s a struggle to even find time to read other people’s posts. As for the house, ARRGGHH! (I do have good intentions for a couple of posts with more detail soon 😉 )

Interesting combination of forms and textures, Janet–the rough surface of the road, the smooth, rounded shell, the sharp, angular grasses. I like the variety of colors as well, and the active, mottled areas vs. the more static, solid colors. Nice.
